General
Document. In the first part ALG remembers the day in September 1939 when the war breaks out in Paris and he has to say goodbye to his priest friends. Just before leaving Paris, ALG interviews Abbé D., who works in the heavy industry in one of Paris's many suburbs. ALG visits him in the factory to find out that, while doing just as hard manual labor as the other workers, his friend is there to fulfill the role of an apostle. Abbé D., like many other priests during World War II in France, wants to help the poor by closing the chasm between the priest, as a person, and the workers' society. The same idea is enforced by the French seminaries as well when they require their pupils to go out and work in a factory doing industrial labor for half a year. Hungarian
